*AJAX Buzzword Reinvigorates Javascript*

"Javascript may have been with us since the beginning of the browser, 
but it's going through a renaissance as companies like Google create 
Javascript-enabled tools like Google Maps . There's even a nice, newly 
coined acronym , AJAX for "Asynchronous Javascript and XML". A nice 
survey article from Infoworld interviews Javascript creator, Brendan 
Eich, who says that this is what he and Marc Andreessen planned from the 
beginning. Perhaps AJAX will finally deliver what Java promised. Perhaps 
it will really provide a solid way to distribute software seamlessly."
